Syracuse Orange

Syracuse football has landed a commitment from Washington (D.C.) Gonzaga defensive lineman David McMorris, he announced on social media. McMorris, a 6-2, 255 pound defensive lineman in the 2024 recruiting class, picked the Orange over offers from Boston College, Pittsburgh, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, West Virginia and several others. McMorris officially visited Syracuse over the weekend.

He is the second defensive lineman to officially visit Syracuse this past weekend and commit to the Orange. The number one player in Delaware, Tristen Graham,

committed on Sunday. Just a couple of days later, McMorris has added his name to Syracuse's 2024 recruiting class.

According to Max Preps, McMorris had 42 tackles, 7.0 tackles for loss, 4.0 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in nine games during his junior season. McMorris is rated a three star prospect by On3 Recruiting, ranked as the 45th best defensive linemen in the class and the third best player in Washington (D.C.). He has not been evaluated, nor rated, by 247Sports, ESPN or Rivals.

The addition of McMorris brings Syracuse football's 2024 recruiting class to five players. McMorris is joined by the aforementioned Graham, running back Trashon Dye, linebacker Travon Dye and offensive lineman Noah Rosahac. The Orange is expected to add more to its class this month with official visits taking place over the next three weekends.

EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more.
